The Third Arab-Israeli War, was fought between June 5 and June 10, 1967, by Israel and the neighboring states of Egypt [known then as the United Arab
Republic (UAR)], Jordan, and Syria. The outcome was a swift and decisive Israeli victory. At the war's end, Israel took effective control of the
Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria.

So they are free to do what they like there.

You forget why this war was actually fought in the first place. The United Nations declared the land to belong to Israel in 1948 unfairly, and of
course the United States backed it. It was Palestine before that, shared by ethnic arabs ever since the BC era.

Israel didn't win it, they where handed it. The Europeans where sympathetic and a bit embarrassed to the treatment of millions of Jews before and
during the war, and this influence was the bottom line they where given land. So who are you to say they are free to do what they like there?

The dismissal of a mosque being destroyed as nothing by some of you is probably a result of a ferocious demonizing of muslims by the western media.
Becoming desensitised to one profile of people is a very dangerous thing and we've seen what it brings throughout history. The perpetrators here
ironically coming from the most obvious case in history.

Yes this is true I am happy other people here understand this. Most people really have no idea about how Israel came about. I'm just trying to help
educate briefly those who do not understand how it came about.

Well it's the truth. Those terrorist Palestinians every day at file missiles at the innocent Jews. the Jews are really quite patient and more humane
than you give credit for. They could use their depleted uranium weapons or larger nukes but they don't because they are a kind & loving people. But
as stated what is the big deal with destroying a Mosque. Allah does not exist anyway ... no biggie!. The Palestinians have been playing the victim
card for way too long! time they got what they deserve. BTW don't ever call me mate. Someone who threatens to kill an ANZAC even in jest can Never
ever be my mate!

I don't know about oozyism but I wouldn't bother having a constructive argument with an obvious bigot like yourself.

I try to stay away from these discussions because in the end, there will always be sides taken and no matter what is said, no one can ever agree, even
to dissagree.

I know how the land was given to the Jews in WWII. But I have to say this...

In america, we're constantly bashed over the issue of taking native land away from the natives. After killing these guys off for so many years, we
decided to give them chunks of land here and there. I'm not saying this is right or wrong, but I do feel that since this is the United States, we
shouldnt have a division of people here. It causes strife b/w the peoples because they are alowed to do on their land whatever they feel, yet
americans are not. i.e. Casino's. But many will say that we should butt out and let them do whatever they wish since it is there land now and as
americans, we hold no claim over what little territory we've given them, yet the rest of the country is made up of people from all over the world.
Why not include native americans? Should this be a divided country? Eventually it will cause the same kind of problems we see in the middle east
because as diffrent beliefs are concerned, it's usually quiet and calm when you have people of all beliefs in one country, but put a dividing line
between them, give land to each of them and call it seperate and see just what kind of problems you will have. It's kinda like telling muslims in
the US that they can kill their wifeS for looking at a man or refusing marriage, but for the rest of the country, it's forbidden to have more than
one wife and you cant touch her without going to prison.

Now... I know I seemed to go off topic there but it was important.

In the case of Israel and the Jews... Those people had been there throughout time. Sure they took the land from other nations thousands of years ago,
but the whole world has done the same to one nation or another countless times through the centuries. Fast forward to the present and we stll do the
same. Israel had been owned and controled by the Jews untill one nation or another took them out and made them prisoner. Persia, Rome, ect ect.
Every time they end up going back to their land, and every time they are taken away. Now, they're back there... We've given them their land, just
as we had done to the native americans, and as the same, we gave them only a fragment of what they owned before. At the time and all througout time,
that land has been occupied by NOMADS, roaming arabs. Sure, the arabs call the land sacred, we call it sacred, jews call it home. To these people,
they're simply taking back what they feel they own.

The same would apply if we gave american natives artillary, tanks, weapons of mass destruction... Do you think that they would not band together
eventually and try to take back what they feel in their hearts is theirs? Would they be wrong for trying? No!

Whoever says that the Jews did not once own that land is just as missinformed as they claim others are. History, undeniable history tells us that
they did indeed live there. Archeology is showing almost daily that there is STRONG evidence that this is so. Deny that they owned it when the
romans occupied it 2000 years ago!

Fast forward to WWII. Hitler damn near wipped them off the face of the earth because they happen to be more profitable than his own people. The
bible even shows that these people were the money smart people of the earth, yet I understand where many here would not even think twice about this
notion. So, if you went to school and became a banker and became VERY smart with your money... Eventually you became a millionate yet someone wanted
to take that from you. Is that right? No... So why would there be hatred about them if they owned all the financial stable and growing businesses in
a country? Because someone else that wanted it didnt have it! Sad.. Very sad. You see where this is going?

So we give them, the few left of that people, the land they they themselves believed was theirs. So what? There was no established country there.
It was full of nomadic wanderers. There was no established civilization there. if there were, I'm sure the powers that be wouldnt have given it to
them. Thats like saying, Hey poland.. We're taking your land and giving it to the Jews, even though you are already a country and established as a
people.

What do muslims control as countries now? The WHOLE middle east. Jews control a country thats no bigger than an average american state! Yet the
palistinians, which have their own country, are the same people who own the rest of the middle east, even through they belong to various factions.
Jews arnt stopping them from worshiping there. They just want the land that is theirs to do with as they as a unified people wish to do. They are
not blocking christans from israel, even though christians are completely opposite of what they believe in. They arnt stopping muslims from worship
and being there. They just want those people to stop blowing up clubs, stores, and anything else that holds hundreds of Jews in one place.

Take Israel and make it your hometown and put yourself in their shoes while someone steps in and trys to wrench it from you. What will you do? What
steps would you take to stop it? What endgame will you plan to finaly have peace in your home town?

All I see is hatred here, for one side or the other. What I dont see if a logical descussion as to why, or offer steps on how to resolve it.
Everything ends with Take this from them or blow up that or riot this or they did this, the bastards! The only true conspiracy here is in our hearts,
on this matter. We're so quick to condem one or the other, but no one bothers to look at the much deeper, bigger picture. All I see is what is to
come with it... Alot of dead PEOPLE... Jews.. Muslims.. Christians.. tourists.. People!

Sure, Israel's govenment may pull some pretty shady acts of violence, but as I mentioned above... If you feel it's your home.. wouldnt you? The
muslims are doing the exact same thing. They feel it is their home too, but their govenment heads are making up lies to push the cituation into
something far worse. It doesnt involve just Israel anymore.. It involves the whole world and whoever stands against the muslims pay for it with
destruction on their home soil! We have seen this. We know this. It still continues to happen. Americans are threatened every single day because
of it. Now even amoung our own people, we divide ourselves and spew waste in each others faces because we fight for one side or the other. Just as
the rest of the world, we take sides for what we feel is right, but no one seems to act civil and have real descussions about it. We rather put
people down that we do not understand. Walk in their shoes a while and live through what they lived though...

But i guess that wont happen because even though the terrors did exist in the lives of the jews through out time, even in WWII, many will deny it
because they are ignorant and they wish to know the truth nor do they even care. When people say, there was no holocost, I laugh. It was as real as
Hitler. Just because it happen half a century ago, we forget, because we dont read. We just take an iranian dictatoring idiot's word for it.

Jeeze people. Educate yourself then educate one another. Dont just say... "You're missinformed and you're an idiot". Its those same people who
themselves are missinformed. This is where conspiracies rise from. We forget history and rely on someone elses word untill we loose sight of the
truth. Then it becomes a bloody conspiracy.

Besides.. They're all the same people. Both cultures believe this. Seperated histories ago. Makes me wonder why, since both people believe they
were brothers once, how in the hell did their beliefs turn out so diffrent!?!

(ok... my last post about Israel.. I know the truth.. If anyone else wishes to blind themselves from it, so be it.. If you wish to learn, there is
ALOT of documented history out there. Arm yourself with it!)

You call yourself Australian?? How sad that you write like a 6 yr old and in such a racist fashion..
I don't think history agrees with you that Israel is kind or loving.

The so-called nation of "Israel" is the invention of one Moses Hess, who was the mentor of Karl Marx, to be the center of what would become world-wide
communism. Hess decided that the Jews were the perfect people to lead the way and show everyone how to do communism and to lead out in the control of
this new world order under communism. The "nation" calling itself Israel was funded by one Lord Rothschilds and his American surrogate and branch of
this take-over cabal, the Rockefellers. Who by the way created the so-called United Nations for the explicit purpose of creating this false "nation"
and to subjugate the world under total tyranny under the guise of humanitarianism masquerading as the ideology called communism.
The facts are there for those who choose to examine them, that the founders of this pretend "nation" were secular communist Jews. The whole world is
suffering and have been suffering for the last hundred years as the morality of the world is forced to sink down to a level where ordinary people will
tolerate the crimes against humanity that they daily perpetrate. They bankrupt the world by design to weaken the true nations to where they will
accept the yoke of slavery with the Jews as their masters. This is their purpose and they are proud of it. But they destroy those with real morals to
get away with murder while the weak minded stand by to pick up the crumbs that fall from the Jew's table and are willing dupes and become thugs and
will starve their own mother to be looked on kindly by the new gods of this world.
The myth that there ever was a historical Hebrew nation is just that, and was invented by people of Babylon to go out and take the land away from the
inhabitants with a forged decree from the then deceased Emperor Cyrus that granted them sanction to retake Jerusalem. The same thing is going on today
with these Casars pretending to be hereditary Jews and having title to Jerusalem when nothing could be further from the truth.

actually i think there was some sort of UN charter or resolution for Israel to return the land that was taken during the war, to return to the
original borders as we prescribed before the war, but they have not and are not planning to anytime in the near future. according to the world, the
land that is presently occupied is not theirs, and they aren't supposed to be there right now. but i mean, since when did the world ever matter to
anyone.

Native inhabitants?
So we should all look down on the US because they murdered thousands possibly millions of native americans?
We must hate the Italians for Invading britain and almost destroying native britons?
Its the way of Human Nature, its war end of.

Does that make it right?

Just because it is what people do does not mean they should do it. Will you just let it happen when England next gets invaded because that is what
people do?

Actually that's not quite true. The UN never did agree to hand it to the Zionists as they said it could not be done without approval from the
Palestinians. So the Zionists took it by force and declared the creation of Israel. Eventually the UN accepted this. It was certainly not 'handed'
to the Zionists - they took it.

Also, it should be remembered that most of the Palestinians are the descendents of Jews who had converted to Islam or Christianity hundreds of years
before. They are probably more genetically 'Jewish' than European Jews!
